Mark Puhlman is a board member of the Lake Oswego Sustainability Network, Lake Oswego Sustainability Advisory Board, and Forest Highlands Neighborhood Association. He holds a doctorate as a Nurse Practitioner and worked in the area of heart failure for 45 years. Attached please find his excellent presentation on gas blowers, which begins at the 24:45-minute mark. This presentation was also given to the Lake Oswego Neighborhood Chairs Committee on November 16, 2024. In it, Mark discusses the significant and myriad health risks of blowers and debunks the myths about the unaffordability of electric blowers, noting the "break even" point for landscape businesses investing in electric blowers is only 10.5 months and further that financial incentives exist to help small businesses with the transition.
